That will look brilliant in 809 NAS markings and anti flash white.
My work bench is starting to look like Portsmouth Naval Dockyard.

Re: Toms' early Buccaneer
Cheers guys, made some more progress on the early Bucc today:
Wings and tail on, the fuselage almost smoothed out and still more sanding to do
Anyways Martin has given the go ahead for me to add another build into this one and I'll be building another Buccaneer. This one will be an S.2 though so no major surgery (read plastic butchery ) required but is an unusual version:
This is the unusual bit:
Yep a recce Bucc , planned loadout is the recce pack with a pair of long range tanks. I'll be using Freightdogs' lovely resin tanks and a replacement nose and tail like the S.1 build. Colour scheme will be overall EDSG and it'll be wearing 809NAS markings like the S.1.
